The reported sequence of events only a handful of people really know what happened/ happens in transfer scouting and acquisitions
I suspect Bruce was not involved in sale of club nor has any real knowledge of how the sake of a club works so simply got that bit wrong .......... a standard condition of an offer to purchase of a club before completing is 'no sale of assets whilst deal is being completed'
So the old owner would have probably lost the sale of Villa to sell Grealish ....... and he needed to sell the club so couldn't sell Grealish !
au contraire - the ease at which you were able to pluck that story out makes me wonder why you aren't so forth coming with something regarding what was originally being discussed
2019 is more recent and Birmingham press had a lot of similar articles so very easy to find
10 years or so back and ploughing through countless articles from all kinds of sources = . huge amount of time to search to find info,
When it comes to "established" players playing time is something that's always discussed during contract talks.
It doesn't mean they will be starting no matter how they perform, of course, but they will be given hints about how the head-coach the concerting player's playing time

How do you know that’s always discussed?
Suggest you read the original discussion more carefully!
Yeah of course you’re right.
The cost of building a billion pound stadium had nothing to do with the lack of expenditure on transfers.
It was because Levy was too busy picking out the light fittings!
Honestly?! Some of the tosh that is written on here is just plain comical at times!
First of all, it's often mentioned in interviews - i.e. that the head-coach is assuring them that they're in his plans, etc.
And it makes sense that a player will discuss his possibility of playing time, where they will play etc.
That’s not guaranteed starting spot though is it?
Tottenham to sign 34 year old Brazil Série B striker with 7 games, 1 goal, 1 assist last year. Spurs are willing to include the Josh Onomah, the Preston North End player as part of the deal. Onomah to fly to Curitiba to compete in a samba competition prior to completion of a
record transfer. Damiao was scheduled to arrive in London but could not find his passport or Ryan Air ticket. The deal is part of Daniel Levy’s new pay as you play and pay your own way club philosophy. Spurs Lion. ITK Tier 1.
Sounds promising but I'll wait for my #HereWeGo from the fat Italian bastard.Tottenham to sign 34 year old Brazil Série B striker with 7 games, 1 goal, 1 assist last year.

So the highest paid CEO in the premier league is not distracted by non football business , seems to me it is in fact his priority.
Before you say it “ it is his job to maximise revenue blah blah blah “ Many of us think it his job to deliver trophies after 24 years as a trainee, that is where we differ
So just be clear for those of us who struggle… should Levy step away from the football side or involve himself deeply?
I’m getting whiplash here.
This is 100% not true. Bastoni wanted to stay at Inter.
However, the fact we then got Lenglet was a disgrace. There were far better left footed alternatives.
He's never coming here.
If he did leave Napoli, it's for PSG or Bayern or Liverpool...as long as it's not Woolwich or Chelsea.
Talking about PSG, apparently Simons ain't part of their plans for next season. Likely to be loaned out again. We should enquire, though RBL have a big headstart.
Yeah, his agent wants him to leave because Napoli aren't in the CL...
Guess who else isn't?
